*According to the U.S. Department of Education, in
2004, the average cost of tuition, fees, and room & board at a 4-year public institution was
$10,720 per year. The average cost at a 4-year private institution was
$25,204 per year.
A traditional funeral, including a casket and vault, costs about
$6,000, however additional items such as flowers and limousines can
add thousands, causing many funerals to run well over $10,000. (From
